Hello, Thank you for reading my profile. My name is Karen and I live in Santa Rosa, CA. My family has been here nearly 40 years now, we have migrated from "The Great Bay Area." I like being with kids and have extensive child care & background with my own family, helping to raise my niece and nephew years ago here in Santa Rosa, and helped with my nephew in Las Angeles a few years ago. The "after school shift", pick up from school, snack time, prep dinner, ect. :) I have experience as an asst. pre-school teacher for two years in SF several years ago and also taught Kinder Ski in the Sierra's, including intermediate skiing with middle school and high schoolers. Great job by the way had a blast and so did they! Now I like helping families & kids with safety & fun. I love music, and will help in any way I can. To a great day! kmn ps. I have successfully completed child development classes and teachers aid experience. Best Wishes Always, Karen N.
“Super friendly, responsible, and communicative. My girls had a fun time with Karen!!”
I am a 28 year-old kids ski instructor and have just completed my 3rd year of instructing. I am down in Sonoma County for my 6th wine harvest. I have been babysitting since I was about 16, and had been a long term nanny twice. I am happy to provide references if you would like to learn more about the high-quality, fun and engaging care I provide. In my free time, I love to spend time outside skiing, hiking, camping, or at the beach. I teach kids 3-12 daily, but have babysat an nannied infants through teens. I am excited to meet you and your family, and to be a positive role model in your children's lives! I also am a pet sitter part-time if you are ever interested in pet care as well.

Hello! My name is Alexa, and I am 21 years old. I am currently attending Santa Rosa Junior College finishing my third associate’s degree and preparing to transfer. I am passionate about staying active, engaging with my community, and building meaningful connections with others. I pride myself on being patient, kind, and understanding. With years of experience caring for children, pets, and maintaining family homes and landscapes, I have developed a strong sense of responsibility and attentiveness.

Please feel free to reach out with any questions!
I have been a preschool teacher for 5 years and it's my dream job. Working with children is the most rewarding thing I've ever done. In addition to my experience, I have 30 units of college coursework in Early Childhood Education. I've worked with both adults and children with learning and behavioral differences and am kind, compassionate, and nurturing. As a mom of two teenagers, I know how hard it is to trust someone to take care of your children. I have excellent references from 4 different preschools including a nature school, Waldorf preschool, and the Multicultural Children's Center here in Santa Rosa. I am currently a teacher at a large family farm and daycare. I am comfortable taking care of animals. Cats, dogs, farm animals...I love them all! In my spare time, I love to get outside and hike and swim. I'm an avid concert/theater goer as well. I hope to hear from you!
I'd describe my personality as a patient, responsible, good listener, love being around kids, loving, and caring I like working with kids because I love having young kids around especially when they are at the age that they still enjoy playing and learning. I'm looking for a job that will be flexible and also a job that I enjoy doing especially during school and I would want to have more job experience with working with children for the future. I started working with kids when I started my college year. I've had the opportunity to work with children the past 2 years and it's been an amazing experience. In my spare time, I like to go to the gym. I usually like to hangout with my friends as well and I like going to my brother's soccer game especially on the weekends One thing you should know about me is I am a very responsible and kind person. My skills include being patient, make sure they are well attended, making sure they feel safe and comfortable

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
